Tokyo Bot. Mag., xi. (219) (1897), xiii. 138 (1899). — Lindera Thunbergii 

 Makino, 1. c. xiv. 184 (1900). non Benzoin Thunbergii Sieb. & Zucc. 



Japan. 



The reason Makino gives in Tokyo Bot. Mag. xiii. 140 for proposing a new 

 name for this species is perfectly correct, while his transfer the following 

 year of Siebold & Zuccarini's misapplied specific name '* Thunbergii " is not 

 correct according to our interpretation of the rules. The type of Benzoin 

 Thunbergii is Lindera umbellata Thunberg and that name therefore becomes 

 a synonym of Benzoin umbellatum.
